I have been in the Insider program for a long. So the problem may not exist for those using Pro or higher versions of Windows. The Auto driver update, as I have seen reported, only applies to the Win 10 Home version(s) it seems. No doubt that will all be addressed quickly based on experiences.

I would imagine that could be fixed pretty quickly (and auto updated!) but it does raise the issue about the potential for problematic driver updates and what to do until they are fixed. The initial challenge, as reported, seemed to a conflict of versions because the Auto updated Win driver form MS was a later(?) release than the Auto update that NVidia wanted to install (as a downgrade or so I read) which left the two systems fighting each other. Note that the issue isn't with the NVidia Drivers but with the WDDM drivers from Windows and it has a nasty effect on dual GPU systems.įor anyone who has issues with updates there is a utility available to hide/block Windows Updates or driver updates. As I read it the Auto update cannot be disabled - no idea if that is correct. A little earlier I read a report about some challenges with the Win 10 automatic driver update feature related to drivers for NVidia products.
